Turn Down for What is a 2013 single by DJ Snake and Lil Jon. The track became a huge internet favorite because its shouted hook and massive drop are easy to recognize in just a few seconds. Short edits of the song spread across meme videos, gaming clips and party compilations, often used when a scene suddenly becomes loud, chaotic or absurd. It is still popular because the payoff arrives almost instantly, similar to quick-reaction sounds like an air horn.
